Why to Convert PS to DOTX?
The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a widely used file format for documents. It is a popular choice for sharing documents due to its compatibility with most operating systems and devices. However, PDF files are not editable and require specialized software to make changes. The Office Open XML (DOTX) format is an open standard for documents created by Microsoft Office applications. It is an editable format, making it easier to make changes to documents without the need for specialized software. Converting PDF files to DOTX format can be beneficial for those who need to make changes to documents without the need for specialized software.

Firstly, developers can use Aspose.PDF for C++ API to convert PDF files to DOC format. Secondly, developers can use the advanced Word Document Processing API, Aspose.Words for C++, to export the DOC file to DOTX format. Aspose.Total for C++ is a comprehensive suite of APIs that provides developers with the tools they need to automate file format conversions. It is easy to use and provides a fast and reliable way to convert PDF files to DOTX format.
C++ API to Render PS to DOTX
Get Started with C++ File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total.Cpp
or via Package Manager Console of Visual Studio with Install-Package Aspose.Total.Cpp
.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
// load PS file with an instance of Document class reference
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(u"sourceFile.ps");
// save PS as a DOC
doc->Save(u"DocOutput.doc", SaveFormat::Doc);
// load DOC with an instance of Document
System::SharedPtr<Document> wordDoc = System::MakeObject<Document>(u"DocOutput.doc");
// save document as Dotx
wordDoc->Save(u"output.Dotx");
Change Password of PS Document via C++
In the process of rendering PS to DOTX, you can open a password protected PS and also change its password. In order to change the password of a PS file, you must know the owner password of that document. You can load password protected PDF document with Aspose.PDF for C++ by specifying its owner password and use ChangePasswords method to change the password.
// load an existing PS Document
auto doc = MakeObject<Document>(L"input.ps", L"owner");
// change password of PS Document
doc->ChangePasswords(L"owner", L"newuser", L"newuser");
// save the document
doc->Save(L"output.Doc");
Restrict DOTX File Editing via C++
You can also restrict DOTX file editing using using Aspose.Words for C++ API. Sometimes you may need to limit the ability to edit a document and only allow certain actions with it. API enables you to control the way you restrict the content using the ProtectionType enumeration parameter. The following code example demonstrates how to restrict editing in a document so only editing in form fields is possible.
// load Doc with an instance of Document
auto doc = System::MakeObject<Document>("input.doc");
// document protection only works when document protection is turned and only editing in form fields is allowed.
doc->Protect(ProtectionType::AllowOnlyFormFields, u"password");
// save the protected document.
doc->Save(u"Protected.Dotx");
